This tiny little truck is one of the first 4×4 salvos that
Suzuki Motors fired into the American market. The tiny
progenitor for such popular small SUVs as the Samurai and the
Sidekick, the LJ20 had micro power with a go anywhere attitude.
This particular 1972 LJ is in remarkable condition considering
its age and propensity for rust, with sound mechanicals and
still wearing the shiny (if slightly jaundiced) factory paint.
The owner claims that there are only about 25,000 miles on the
358cc two-cylinder motor, making it well able to still reach the
dizzying heights of its 55 mph top speed. Despite its small
engine we can only imagine that the lightweight, narrow track,
and 4×4 setup make this Suzuki an absolute terror off-road.
